Russ Lopez book, The Hub of the Gay Universe: An LGBTQ History of Boston, Provincetown and Beyond shares how vibrant Boston’s gay scene was through the much of the 20th century. After WWII, Boston had more than a dozen gay bars.

The decline of these spaces has reignited the discussion about the slow demise of the gay bar in Boston, and it made me wonder, what same-sex attracted bar from Boston’s past do you miss the most?
